What
better way to start your Valentine's celebrations with your special
someone than to enjoy a super-hot excerpt together from my
erotic-romantic comedy novel, Beautiful Dreamer... Maybe you could act it out? ;-)

Can a sexy, sleepwalking librarian corral a
commitment-shy sheriff during the mayhem of rodeo week? When Marianne
the Librarian sleepwalks into the brawny arms of handsome Sheriff Cody
Greene, sparks fly and an erotic night of pleasure ensues. Amazingly,
Marianne hasn't a clue that their rendezvous even happened.

A
confirmed bachelor, Cody realizes Marianne isn't the "love 'em and leave
'em" type he's used to entertaining in bed, and he's worried. Will she
make him take a walk down the aisle if he confesses to his part of her
fantasies? Can't they just be friends with benefits?

Will Cody be able to
tell Marianne the truth about his involvement in her sleepwalking
escapades? Will he and Marianne discover beyond their fantasies true love
prevails?

Excerpt:
Cody realizes Marianne is sleepwalking through her place of work
because she acts like she's a damsel in distress and he is a knight in
shining armor. But no matter how Cody resists Marianne's seduction, he
finds his match in the normally reserved librarian.

"Marianne, you're tempting me beyond the brink, but you
know we can't." Cody took a deep breath, steadying his nerves. Somehow he
had to talk her out of this situation without hurting her feelings or
losing any more of his clothing. "We
have to think about your health and reputation. I don't have anything on me
for, uh, you know, protection."

Marianne paused in her litany of kisses upon his neck and
brow. She drew back, blinking rapidly as she stared into his serious
hazel-green eyes.

"The brave and handsome knight travels without the
sheath to his sword?"

He exhaled a painful sigh. "Yes, yes, that's right. I
left it along with my white horse back at
the castle."

Her eyes narrowed. She reached behind herself and picked up
his trousers, plucking his billfold out of the pocket.

"My good lord always carried his sheath in his moneybag
just in case." A wicked grin graced her love-swollen lips as she withdrew
the forgotten condom from his billfold and waved it inches from his nose.
"It appears ye do likewise."

Cody blinked then blinked again. His jaw dropped open to the
size of the Palo Duro Canyon. How had that gotten in his wallet? Then it
dawned on him. He had picked up a pair of condoms off the ground outside the
gymnasium after making his obligatory visit to the senior prom a few weeks
back. They were brand-spanking new and in good shape, and he had thought he'd
keep them just in case anyone ever needed any for just such an emergency.

"Uh, yeah, it appears I do." He cleared his
cracking voice. "It doesn't mean we have to—"

Covering his lips with hers, Marianne silenced any further
objections. Her butterfly fingers fluttered across his shoulders and down his
sides, coming to a comfortable rest at his tight buns. Caressing him with
unrestrained passion, she struggled to remove their remaining barrier.

"Allow me," Cody said, giving up the fight. He
rolled his temptress to the side before carefully sliding his shorts down over
his rock-hard erection.

Marianne's eyes widened. "My lord has indeed been
blessed with a very broad sword."

Her knuckles whitened in their grip around the purple condom
wrapper, her small hands trembling ever so slightly.

This has gone far enough. Cody reached out and gently
cradled Marianne's delicate face in his big hands and waited for her rapidly
shifting focus to settle fully on his face.

"Marianne, it's okay if you want to stop now," he
said slowly, deliberately. "I'll understand. I promise."

The sound of tearing plastic echoed throughout the silent library.
Her lascivious smile said it all.

"Once the horse has escaped from his stall, it would be
a sin not to allow him to gallop forth. Would it not, my lord?"

The look of pure wantonness in her eyes dissolved Cody's
last iota of restraint. Marianne cried joyously as he scooped her up and placed
her astride him, gently guiding her hands to sheath his member.

He wound his own hands into her thick tresses, bringing her
face to meet his in order to partake of a deep and lingering kiss. With
exquisite slowness, he eased himself
inside her in the most intimate of embraces.

Her tightness enveloped him totally, driving him almost over
the edge. Breathing deeply, he struck up a strong and steady rhythm of thrusts.
She arched her back and responded with a tantalizing twist of her hips, pulling
him deeper into herself and deeper still, seemingly to the depths of her very
soul.

They squealed and groaned and bucked and bounced through the
sea of cushions, locked in a rollicking dance of desire. His mouth tasted her
sweet breasts once again as he stroked her sensitive nub. She cried out in
rapturous delight, begging him to come along with her.

A knight can't very well refuse his lady. Cody
eagerly obliged his comely companion with a series of hard, quick thrusts.
Marianne threw back her head, screaming as the potent eternity of their joining
came to its mutual climax. Plunging together over the passion's edge, they
drifted calmly back toward earth and collapsed, sated, into each other's arms...
